Opportunity for Revenge


In 2012 when I started writing my MaliaMania grammar blog, I promised not to be insufferable about word usage. I've failed miserably. I've often been pedantic. And smug. And sarcastic. And I've used way too many big words.

If I've offended, revolted or mystified you along the way, it's your turn to get revenge. 

I have a new book out. The good news is that it's not about grammar. It's about a new kind of sibling rivalry among baby boomers. I wrote it with my sister, who's a doctor and not a writer. (Yeah, she stepped right in it when she agreed to write a book with a grammar nerd and has regretted her poor judgement ever since).

Here's how you can get revenge. Read our book "Sisterly Shove" and comment on this blog about any grammer mistakes or typos you find. Or if you're really ambitious, write an Amazon review of the book. Consider these options:

1) BEST CHOICE!!! Buy our book "Sisterly Shove” at this Amazon.com link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1980807027?ref_=pe_870760_150889320  

2) Spend your money at Starbucks instead and just read the "Look inside" sample pages from the book at the same link above.  

3) Easy way out! Re-read this blog, find any mistakes and comment on them (OR) go to the website SisterlyShove.com and say mean things about it.

Thanks so much to all of the 5,406 of you who have read my blog (not that I'm counting, of course) and bantered about words with me. You're the best!
